Psalmi 143
1 Dāvida dziesma. Ak Kungs, klausi manu lūgšanu, ņem vērā manas sirds lūgšanas Savas patiesības dēļ, paklausi mani Savas taisnības dēļ!
A Psalm. Of David. Let my prayer come to you, O Lord; give ear to my requests for your grace; keep faith with me, and give me an answer in your righteousness;
2 Un neej sodā ar Savu kalpu, jo Tavā priekšā neviens, kas dzīvo, nav taisns.
Let not your servant come before you to be judged; for no man living is upright in your eyes.
3 Jo ienaidnieks vajā manu dvēseli, viņš samin manu dzīvību pie zemes, viņš mani liek tumsībā, kā tos, kas jau sen miruši.
The evil man has gone after my soul; my life is crushed down to the earth: he has put me in the dark, like those who have long been dead.
4 Un mans gars iekš manis iztvīcis, mana sirds iekš manis nonīkusi.
Because of this my spirit is overcome; and my heart is full of fear.
5 Es pieminu senos laikus, es pārdomāju visus Tavus darbus, es runāju pie sevis par to, ko Tava roka darījusi.
I keep in mind the early days of the past, giving thought to all your acts, even to the work of your hands.
6 Es izplešu savas rokas uz Tevi, mana dvēsele ir Tavā priekšā kā izkaltusi zeme. (Sela)
My hands are stretched out to you: my soul is turned to you, like a land in need of water. (Selah)
7 Steidzies mani paklausīt, Kungs, - mans gars nonīcis; neapslēp Savu vaigu priekš manis, lai netopu kā tie, kas grimst bedrē.
Be quick in answering me, O Lord, for the strength of my spirit is gone: let me see your face, so that I may not be like those who go down into the underworld.
8 Liec man agri dzirdēt Tavu žēlastību, jo es paļaujos uz Tevi; dari man zināmu to ceļu, pa ko man jāiet; jo uz Tevi nesās mana dvēsele.
Let the story of your mercy come to me in the morning, for my hope is in you: give me knowledge of the way in which I am to go; for my soul is lifted up to you.
9 Izglāb mani, Kungs, no maniem ienaidniekiem, Tev es pavēlos(iekš Tevis es patveros).
O Lord, take me out of the hands of my haters; my soul is waiting for you.
10 Māci man darīt pēc Tava prāta, jo Tu esi mans Dievs, Tavs labais Gars lai mani vada pa taisnu ceļu.
Give me teaching so that I may do your pleasure; for you are my God: let your good Spirit be my guide into the land of righteousness.
11 Tava vārda dēļ ak Kungs, atspirdzini mani, izved manu dvēseli no bēdām Savas taisnības dēļ.
Give me life, O Lord, because of your name; in your righteousness take my soul out of trouble.
12 Un izposti manus ienaidniekus Savas žēlastības dēļ, un iznīcini visus, kas manu dvēseli apbēdina, jo es esmu Tavs kalps.
And in your mercy put an end to my haters, and send destruction on all those who are against my soul; for I am your servant.
